Hey all,

Two questions:

1. Can you change the info or fields that a user/client sees in the details of an application in their Run Advertised Programs? We use the description field of a program to store info pertinent to us (SMSers) but of course the user gets to see this info if they click details on any app in their run advertised programs (have lots of non-mandatory apps). Can you change what info or fields are shown in the details page, or do we just have to be carefull what we write!

2. When starting to install an app, we have it set to download to the local cache, so it give's an estimate of how long it will take to download, but it bases this on a 56k link thus shows like a day to downloads a fair sized app. Of course once the download starts, within 30 seconds the 'true' donwload time is estimated and shown but i wonder if you could change the original estimate?

thanks for your help

BP

1. no you can't change the behavior
2. No it always starts out at the slowest speed and then tests, this then changes to the "true" speed/time.

This is the default behavior of SCCM
